How do I import a song into GarageBand from 'Music'

how do I import a song which is in 'music' on my iPad into 'GarageBand' on the same iPad - I do not use the Cloud currently but I should not need to for this simple import (sorry, just starting to use the iPad today for the first time) thx

I believe at the moment the only way to import new samples into GarageBand is via the File Sharing feature of iTunes when it is connected to a computer. iCloud won't help as each app is sandboxed and can generally only access its own files. Transfer of data between apps is possible but is tightly controlled and mediated by iOS rather than by simply sharing files between applications as you would on a computer.

How can i import raw files into iphoto from my Nikon D300?

Just got a Nikon D300, and it will import jpg and tff, but not raw (nef) files-i prefer iphoto to their software- Nikon says to try talking to apple to find a way to do it- does anyone know any info that can help? I need to decide if I am keeping the camera-from other posts it doesn't look like buying aperture will help either- thanks.

I would not ditch a camera because of this! If you like the camera, there will always be a way to import Canikon RAW files, though you may need to do some upgrading, and it may take some time for Apple to support a new camera.

Can I import a song into the garage band app and edit it?

"garbage app"? Surely you're joking
To use a song in GarageBand on your iPad, sync it from a computer using iTunes to the iPad, so the song will be in the Music.app. All songs in the Music.appp can be added to a GarageBand project as loops, using the Loop Browser.

How to import multiple songs into iTunes

Hello there...
I am fairly new to iTunes and am becoming frustrated with this particular issue. Prior to using iTunes, I used Kazaa, where whenever a song was added to My Shared Folder, Kazaa would update the library instantly. I want to have the same sort of thing with iTunes. For example, one of my friends filled my USB drive with music today. When I came home and plugged it into my computer, I dragged and dropped all the songs into my iTunes Music folder. I expected them to appear in the library, but they're not there. I don't know how to add them all to iTunes without importing them one by one. I suppose in this case I could import my entire USB drive folder, but what if someone sends me a handful of songs as an email attachment or over MSN? How do I import those?
Thank you!

iTunes for windows doesn't "Watch" folders and files for changes like other programs. You need to goto File>add folder to library so it will "Piont" iTunes to where the music is located on the system.

How can I copy a music CD to a blank CD on my iMac without importing the songs into my itunes?

So far the solutions I have seen suggest to import the songs into iTunes, create a playlist, and then burn this playlist to a blank CD.
However, I don't want these songs in my playlist. My mother-in-law asked me to make a copy for her and it is her type of music which i don't want in my iTunes.
Is there any way I can copy these songs without importing them first?
Thanks!

No, unless you use the copy function in Roxio Toast.
You could try via Disk Utility but you may be thwarted by copy protection.
Of course, there is nothing to stop you deleting those tracks from iTunes after you have made the copy!

How do you bring a mp3 into garageband ?

im trying to bring in beats and other mp3 clips into garageband from my itunes but the dragging and dropping does not work. how do you do it !!?? please help /FYI: im using a 15inch mac book pro OSX 10.8.2

Two ways to do that:

Use the Media Browser in GarageBand to select the song in iTunes and drag it from the Media Browser into the timeline in GarageBand.
click the iTunes icon to open the Media Browser.

How can i switch a song into a MP3 Version like in the former iTunes version ?

hello, how can i switch a song into a MP3 File like in the former Version from iTunes

Franky,
The Create New Version command always indicates the format that it presently set in your Import Setttings, which apparently is AAC. To change it to MP3, go to Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings, and set "Import Using" to MP3 Encoder. Also select your preferred bitrate. OK out of there, and then look again at Create New Version.

How do I import existing song libraries to my I tunes library?

How do I import existing song libraries to my I tunes library?

Due to recent security issues and identify theft (mostly due to phishing scams), the iTunes Store seems to be requiring more frequent verification of address information, even if you have a balance from a prepaid card. Either just go through the verification process or, if you have a credit card entered and don't expect to need to use it anytime soon, go into the Payment information in your account and set the payment method to "none" which should then stop the regular requirements for verification. If it still asks - my account does - just click through the buttons and it should verify without problems.
Hope this helps.

How can i convert my song into .mr4 for making it my ringtone, just renaming it is not working?

how can i convert my song into .mr4 for making it my ringtone, just renaming it is not working?

Here's how:
If you are using Windows, make sure you are able to view the file extension.

1. Select a title (.mp3 or .m4a) in your iTunes Music Library
2. Do File > Get Info on selected title (Windows do Edit > Get Info)
3. In the dialog choose Options tab
4. Set Start Time and End Time (no more than 35 secs otherwise won't work)
5. Close dialog.
6. Now control click the title (right click) and choose Create AAC Version
Note: If you don't have Create AAC version, switch in menu File > Preferences...(Windows do Edit > Preferences...) > General > Import Settings... > Import Using: AAC Encoder.
7. When it is done, drag the newly create title to the desktop.
8. Delete the newly create title in iTunes. <-- This step is important
9. Rename the title on your desktop from ringtone.m4a to ringtone.m4r
10. Drag and drop it into iTunes
Now you have a ringtone.
Make sure it is selected in iTunes > Tones for syncing with your new iPhone.

Placing Garageband songs into iCloud from Macbook Pro???

Hi. Just trying to figure out how to place my garageband songs into iCloud from my macbook pro? It is possible, right? If so, how will i be able to listen to the songs on my iphone 5?

To load your music from your mac into iCloud you need iTunes Match. Have you subscribed to it?
Then share your GrageBand projects to iTunes, and iTunes will uhe GarageBand songs to iCloud, together with all your other music.
In GarageBand: From the main menu bar:
Share > Send Song to iTunes
Regards
Léonie
P.S. If you have GarageBand on your iPhone, you can share directly from your iPhone to iCloud and download and edit those projects on your Mac. Projects initially created on your iPhone can be shared from iTunes to your iPhone even without iTunes Match, but you can only listen to them in GB on on your iPhone.

How do I make one song into two separate songs?

I have a song on my iTunes that I want to to split into two different songs, each with different names, and that can be played right after each other in the album. Is there an easy way to split up this song into two different parts, and if so, how? Thanks!

That is a common capability of DJ programs, but cannot be done with iTunes.

When downloading an album i already had one of the songs on my iphone,now that album has downloaded its missing the song which is separate in my music how do i move that song into that album?

hi i need help with my iphone 3gs!!example......i have already got one of rihannas songs on my music library the other day i decided to buy the album on itunes.once it downloaded i checked in it my music and all the songs were there apart from the one i already have but that song was separate from the album,how do i move that song into the right album.i have a few which have this problem please help as its really annoying!!!louisa

How do I consolidate a song into an album, each purchased separately, in my iTunes library? iMac OSX 10.8.5. iTunes Help has been no help.

However, my troubleshooting issue is that I also want the songs in my concert playlists to go in order of how they were performed at the concerts.
Give them a track number.
Each time I number them within the playlists the song's number also changes within the Library Music list.
And? I'm not seeing the problem.
However, I can not figure out how to make true copy. I've already tried dragging the song to my desktop, then dragging the new copy back into iTunes. I've even tried renaming the duplicate copy and dragging it into iTunes. Why won't my iTunes make an individual duplicate copy of a song?
How do you have iTunes manage your music? If you drag a song to the desktop it may just be moving the file to the desktop.
Command+R to reveal the file in Finder. Command+D to duplicate the file in Finder. Drag the duplicate to iTunes to add the second copy. Not that I totally understand where the issues lie and feel this is likely not the best remedy...

How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive? The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import. Can it be done?

How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive? The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import. Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC.

No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either. It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected. VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB. All of which cannot be opened or selected.
Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC. Is that the same? Thank you for your time and response.
